Security Lead - Member of Technical Staff
We are seeking a Security Lead – Member of Technical Staff to help shape and deliver a robust security strategy across products, infrastructure, and engineering practices. This is a hands-on technical leadership role for an experienced security professional who can operate effectively across application security, cloud environments, identity and access management, vulnerability management, and incident response. You will work closely with engineering, platform, product, legal, and operations teams to identify risk, improve resilience, and embed security throughout the development lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include defining and maintaining security standards, architectural principles, threat models, and engineering guidance. You will lead security reviews of systems and features, identify vulnerabilities and prioritise remediation, and support secure design from early planning through deployment. You will help develop monitoring, detection, and response capabilities; coordinate investigations and post-incident improvements; and contribute to security assessments, audits, and compliance activities. You will also mentor engineers, raise security awareness, evaluate tools and technologies, and represent security in technical and strategic discussions.
The successful candidate will bring significant experience in a technical security engineering or security architecture role, with a strong understanding of modern software development and cloud-native environments. Practical expertise in areas such as secure coding, application and API security, infrastructure security, identity systems, cryptography, network fundamentals, and security automation is expected. Experience leading complex security initiatives, influencing without direct authority, and communicating effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences is essential. You should be comfortable balancing delivery, usability, and risk, working independently in an evolving environment, and taking ownership of outcomes. Relevant industry certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcome, as is a demonstrated record of building scalable security programmes and improving engineering maturity.
